The Blue Jays land on the electric wires and wait for someone to throw them a peanut. They perform incredible aerobatics to catch a nut in the air. Even if there are free peanuts for the taking on the ground, they seem to prefer the game of catching them from the wire. They're not born with this ability. The young ones see the older ones doing this and they try and try for weeks until they get the hang of it.
